Latte with Luke guides readers to consider the stories Luke has chosen to show the humanity of Jesus Christ—the Son of Man.

Luke the physician, more than any other Gospel writer, focuses on Jesus’s interactions with social outsiders, including women. Latte with Luke guides readers to consider the stories Luke has chosen to show the humanity of Jesus Christ—the Son of Man. This study places special emphasis on the woman Luke highlights, both good and evil, as he tells the story of the life of Jesus Christ.

This seven-week study, with leader’s guide, includes Bible study questions, sidebars, and devotionals. Designed for group or individual use—for both men and women.
